Unpopular opinion: American Psycho was just as awful as the book upon which it is based. It was a boring porno that tried to dress itself up as art and failed at both.
...which in turn is a direct result of having to please shareholders, who don’t really care about the long-term since they’ll have sold their shares when prices peaked, and have long moved on to other companies by the time your operation collapses like a house of cards.
As a doctor:
Is the world so bereft of male talent that these few precious writers, comedians, directors, chefs, politicians, executives, judges, etc., etc., and of course etc. must be “rehabilitated” at all costs? Are their works so important, so poignant, so critical to our understanding of the human condition that to lose them…
keep thinking this is a relationship between Nanny McPhee and David Fostter Wallace since I’m not actually sure who these people are.
Hi, I’m Kate McClure. You might remember me from such grifts as “raising a bunch of money for a homeless dude only to pocket most of it for myself” and “using the heroin addiction he had before giving me his last $20 to defend myself.”
If something doesn't bother me, it shouldn't bother anyone! I can eat peanuts, so those snowflakes with "allergies" should just suck it up and be exactly like me!

I refuse to respond to this obvious asshole, even to point out he has in his username the name of a girl who was trafficked in hugely-distributed *child pornography* in the 80s while defending a sex assaulter who has done nothing to rehabilitate himself and demanding we stop “victimizing” the abuser. I’m sure he…
We don’t have to keep propping up the assholes.
Whenever I see a photo of this ghoul, I always think of this:
How do I h4xx kinja to star this a billion times?
I’d also argue that Louis has made a living already—several, in fact. If he invested even 1/10th of what he made in the past decade he’ll be doing better than the vast majority of people in this country.
